View 7 RepliesI run Ubuntu 10.10 now and was surprised when I couldn't find Kivio which I use for simple charts for work. I now know that's it's no longer supported and so decided to try Dia as it's more of a native app' anyway, so here's the problem..The page setup dialog has a page size of A4 but it appears that this only relates to one of the (for want of a better term) cell sections on the sheet, I found this out after (stupidly) creating a diagram that spanned a few of these cells and being surprised when my printer started spitting out sheet after sheet of diagram bits!
So can someone help me out and tell me how to setup Dia up so that what I can see on screen is what I'll get when I print, If I try to stay in one cell section it looks daft to work on and is far too small as well.An explanation of what the actual thinking and benefit behind the current layout is would also be appreciated, I'm sure it's great for some people but I just want to do a few flow charts!
I was wondering how you might go about printing multiple images on a single sheet of paper...I used to know how to do it in Windows but have never done it in Ubuntu.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am building a midi synthesizer that I'd like to be able to control from linux. I know its a rather broad question, but, how do I go about this? At this point the hardware consists of a simple UART bridge, and I've already written a simple C++ program using termios to send the raw midi data to the device. Obviously I don't want to write a player/sequencer from scratch, so where should I start if I wanted to get this thing to work with, say, a sequencer like rosegarden? Do I write the driver for rosegarden, or hook into alsa or what?
View 1 Replies View RelatedStupid browser froze up when I tried to submit this before... *sigh* Anyway, is there a simple midi editor that that isn't Rosegarden and doesn't require JACK? Something would simply let me load a Soundfont, and then edit and export a multi-track midi file without a bunch of other stuff you have to do?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to make a list of music based on tags. My girlfriend wants to go through my list of music to choose what she wants for a trip we're taking. However, she's not able to be in front of my computer, so I need to make a list of music that she can go through. A flat html file would be fine, but I'm sure other formats would work too. And I need it to be based on metadata, not the filenames (I could easily print out a list of files, but metadata would be much better). I've tried some tag editors, such as kid3 and easytag, but none will let you export a list like this. I suppose I could just make a playlist then remove all other unneeded data.

I've setup a second wireless router, dedicated to the MAC address of my laptop (debian) and using ssh I can view my email (thunderbird), but I'm not sure what to do to view woodworking videos without downloading. So, do I need to setup tunneling, do I need to view the windowmanager or is there an way to run videos? Anyway I've come along way using HOWTo's with breaking debian. Not sure how to proceed.
Note: The primary wireless router is from my ISP.
I would like to know how I can play a midi file in Slackware command line. I write "aplaymidi -p (port number) file.mid" and I see that it is working, but I can't hear anything. As I have Windows XP in a computer and Windows 7 in another, I have to convert the midi files into wave files in order to listen to them in Slackware using play. There is another thing that I haven't ever been able to do in spite of the fact that I have had Slackware installed in my computers since 2002, and this thing is: I have never been able to connect Internet using Slackware or any other Linux distribuition. I like Linux very much but I am frustrated at not being able to do these two things: to play a midi file in Slackware and to connect Internet.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow to play a MIDI file, or a .mid file, <embed>ded in a Web page from my Ubuntu/Firefox combination?
View 1 Replies View Relatedhave recently installed CentOS 5.6 Final on TWO DIFFERENT desktop PC's, and, on EITHER ONE, I can not get any sound output when using KMid to play a "standard .mid file (the file I am using to experiment with is "Canyon.mid", from the Windoze Media directory, a fairly standard midi audio file, I should think?!). I have normal audio output on both of these machines (.mp3 files, system sounds, etc.), so the specific sound cards are NOT the issue, here!I am thinking I must be missing something, as both of these PC's are completely different CPU types, etc. as well. The only significant similiarity in the two machines is the complete lack of MIDI audio output!And, yea, the soundcards are BOTH MPU-401 compatible, and they both have irq's assigned to this port (or, maybe just one has an irq assigned, I will have to double check...).

I Just got the ADS VideoXpress video capture USB thing (Plug composite video and audio into it, and plug it into a computers USB port). Anyway, I've tried to install what came on the CD, with Wine, but still cant view any video. I don't need it to record from it, I just want to view the video live as it passes through. I don't even need audio, just the basic low quality video.
Anyone know where I can find a program to view the raw input?[URL]..
I'm running a java program and to debug the program instead of using a debugger I would like to look to the heap and to the bytes in the memory of the process. I was hoping that the pointers would give me a snapshot of a moment of the application. It exists a program that allow us to look to the details of a process and to the memory ram?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a program to manage my music, and if I keep using Banshee, I'm likely to break something in my house. All I want to do is edit file tags (like genre, artist, and album title) - but it won't let me do that. I can't edit the files directly - first I have to get them into the "library", and in order to do that, I can't drag and drop them - it forces me to actually open up the files (which plays them, and sticks them smack into the middle of the "library", and I then have to go searching/scrolling through the whole thing in order to locate them and then finally edit them). And after all this, spending like 4 hours doing all this, I find out that IT DIDN'T ACTUALLY EDIT THE FILES. It edited them in its own mind - for the duration that they were in the "library" - but it didn't make a change to the actual files.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have had bad experiences using Evince and Okular to print SOME pdf files. For example I scanned a bunch of last year's medical records and bills to a pdf file using my scanner and Xsane. I can view the file but not print a page to my Brother laser printer. Same goes with my CITI bank Master Card statements. They appear to be images of the paper statement - not sure if that has anything to do with it.I had to resort to using a Windows 7 virtual machine running the huge bloated brand name Acrobat reader
Anyhow... this afternoon I built a VMWare virtual machine of the latest Ubuntu 10.10 beta. Setup my laser printer and decided to try to print one of my problem files. Evince did not do it. pdftops pegged the CPU at 100% and it stayed there until I killed it. Then one page came out with some not helpful error messages. I then looked in the Software Store and started down the list of pdf viewing programs. However, my plan was to keep trying programs until I found one that worked. Success came soon with ePDFViewer. It works on both 10.10 and 10.04 (my current desktop) and will print any pdf I have thrown at it. I am now a happy camper as far as pdf files are concerned.

View 3 Replies View RelatedFor some time I have been interested in life without a GUI, not necessarily living that life per-say but "interested" as a child would be about astronauts. So having taken said interest I've began to study it lightly at first, trying CMUS as my music player (A text based music player ran through terminal). I've also gotten a "Basic" (in the loosest of terms) understanding of how to import music through said program. Other than such, I know how to change directory, and see files via ls commands.

I will sometimes elude me as to the full boundaries of it's uses; So I come asking this, amongst all of you does anyone live within a text based environment for extended periods? Days? Weeks? Years? What advantage does living a text based computer lifestyle give you against GUI folks?
